As I understand it the final will be played as a curtain raiser before the men's Belgium v Germany game. If Netherlands beat Belgium in the semi it would be worth a trip from here, but the Dutch men's team is playing the same afternoon. What to do?

Maybe. I didn't see the Spain Germany game, but it's hard to tell anything without knowing much about the opposition. Spain will certainly have seen some weaknesses in Dutch play. Both Belgian tries came from pushovers from the forwards. One from a series of phases a metre from the line, another from a catch and drive after a lineout if I recall correctly. HT 45-12 I think, with most if not all the Dutch tries coming from open play.

Let's be honest, the players Spain has sent to Belgium are the players due to face WRWC qualifiers in two years time. If some Sevens players are missing it's because they are thought not to be fit or available when needed. Young ones with SWS experience are there.

It may not be a full-strength ideal Spanish squad, but it's right what we need to develop for 2021.
